yt-ScienceOutThere 03-Apr-19 06:23 PM

23 is dead average. Wonder what the plus or minus would be.

Freshgeek 03-Apr-19 06:23 PM

Yeah, thats based on climo

Troy4321 03-Apr-19 06:26 PM

But that’s not a good way of doing it the distribution of tornadoes on a small temporal scale like a week is completely useless IMO just like precip you can’t take climo and statistics on a week or less time period

You meanies talked me out of chasing

Actually that was the fb group

But still

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 06:28 PM

LMAO

you're not missing much, even if it produces a tornado. You think there won't be 10+ more of these types of marginal supercell days (even if it does overperform?)

bo_sox48 03-Apr-19 06:29 PM

I want all of them though

And this stupid pos has nice inflow

It's gonna do it

And probably not just wrap up immediately either

Andrew Berrington (Norman, OK) 03-Apr-19 06:29 PM

Eh I still have my doubts about tornadoes

bo_sox48 03-Apr-19 06:29 PM

Imagine one coming from that though

Is it not worth a shot?

I'm gonna go cry

Yeah if I was still an undergrad student i woulda been out there. just because

Shit even if I was off here I'd probably have gone. Marginal AF but still

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 06:35 PM

Even though I wish I was out there I'm cheering hard for this system.

A year that doesn't bust bad at every corner would be a big welcomed change of pace for the 2010s.. I'm feeling overly positive right now. Supercell season is legit back.

312will 03-Apr-19 06:37 PM

Is it the forcing or the EML (or both) allowing low 50s Td to go like this? Something else? I wouldn't normally have expected this without mid 60F+ Td off the Caprock.

Gorgeous severe storm over Memphis, TX. #txwx

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 06:40 PM

Would have to run stats to compare EML mean temperature (potential temperature) vs mean for the last few years to get a better idea. Complex study

John Homenuk (New York, NY) 03-Apr-19 06:41 PM

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 06:41 PM

But the forcing, which is tied to baroclinicity just "seems" better. These are pretty nice jets/waves we've been getting.

Best part for those out there today: It's a low end slight risk on a Tuesday in April, which means you don't have to fight the OKC Horde that will show up in May.

Stephen Henry (ABQ, NM) 03-Apr-19 07:46 PM

Don't let that pent up SDS get to you. There were plenty of smart reasons not to go out today. We knew beautiful structure was quite possible. But a Wednesday for structure is pretty expensive if your vacation/coworker limited.

That said if this thing drops a photogenic tor then I will eat my hat. or my cat. or whatever else is in forking distance.

Andrew Berrington (Norman, OK) 03-Apr-19 07:48 PM

There's a tripod salute moment.

I think today overachieved or at least met expectations. This is a very good sign for the rest of April. Just my crystal ballin'.

I think if dews look a few points low, CAP seems too big, and HRRR is convecting. Chase it.

For this month anyway. last year i don't think this setup even produces clouds.

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 08:55 PM

I sure hope Altus AFB heeded ny advice today, otherwise some major damage is on the way

readyletsgo 03-Apr-19 08:56 PM

What did you tell them? Or did you just go

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 08:57 PM

Narrator: they probably didn’t

Told them CAMs were showing high confidence of discrete supercells impacting their area.

Timmer is just a sideshow act anymore. He doesn't do research; he is just a celebrity, and that is the only cred he has anymore. I bet he hasn't done one useful thing with his PhD. https://t.co/cmnznXgiKc

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 09:02 PM

Yeah wtf... who cares

Sounds like u jelly of his wild success

What’s his net worth? Whatever it is he is self made. Mad props.

readyletsgo 03-Apr-19 09:04 PM

I don’t think timmer really advertises himself as a scientific researcher so w/e

People are allowed to be popular

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 09:05 PM

He really just trolls these days. That’s the life

seanbarg 03-Apr-19 09:05 PM

but the rockets for science data

and the sensors

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 09:05 PM

Estimated net worth of 250 K. Man if I could achieve that by chasing

readyletsgo 03-Apr-19 09:05 PM

Yeah he kinda is the exception though

That’s not realistic. Kinda a right place right time thing for him

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 09:06 PM

That’s what I’m saying

Jon 03-Apr-19 09:11 PM

duda's twitter looks more political than it did the last time i remember looking at it like a year ago

Troy4321 03-Apr-19 09:12 PM

Yeah I’m not a huge fan of politics really ruins twitter for me

seanbarg 03-Apr-19 09:13 PM

i just followed him again.. and then unfollowed after scrolling down

sorry Duda

Jon 03-Apr-19 09:14 PM

i dont understand everyones giant aversion to politics. you gotta be in the mood to handle the amount of bullshit spewed from both sides, but thats it imo

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 09:15 PM

lol yeah the aversion to politics is exactly what is wrong

But I'm not finna get banned

Jon 03-Apr-19 09:16 PM

yo does anyone have any idea why the velocity data has been such crap on this storm? theres no storms b/w it and the radar and the hail is downstream of the beam

i remember a thing where sometimes the beam thought it was reading data at lets say.. 2,000 feet but the beam like.. refracted or something? further up in elevation and returned something from 4,000 feet (edited)

bo_sox48 03-Apr-19 09:17 PM

I was assuming it's because it's not a tornadic storm lol

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 09:18 PM

That's sidelobe contamination

And due to the presence of tons of hailstones aloft

Jon 03-Apr-19 09:20 PM

so the TLDR version would be that velocity scans can get FUBAR due to storm w. a lot of hail? (edited)

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 09:21 PM

a lobe in the vertical may hit hail or other dense particles aloft (but thinks it is in the low levels) and it will read those higher level winds as low level winds

But yeah it shits all over the velocity data

Jon 03-Apr-19 09:21 PM

this is def one of the worst velocity scans in terms of FUBARness

BJC9533 03-Apr-19 09:21 PM

megawedge

bo_sox48 03-Apr-19 09:22 PM

Pilger and el reno right there

Jon 03-Apr-19 09:22 PM

so.. operationally when this happens.. you would have to rely on other products to infer a potential tornado?

i kept looking at zdr to see if it did that size sorting thing along the inflow and ofc looking at reflectivity

like insane off topic lol

can imagine why since it was just one cell lol

is it the hrrr seems to get it on these smaller events?

Every CAM nailed it

And they were all in agreement from the outset

For posterity on this day: the HRRR's UH model trend performance vs radar. We can all watch this later this year when the HRRR is out to lunch and reminisce about the good ol days.
